Kills of the Week

Let me ask you something. Would you like to see a highsec that rewards creativity and content, discourages bot-aspirancy, and is wholesome for our children--yet intellectually engaging for adults? The Code can get us there. It can. Let's look at some of the steps toward paradise we took during the week of June 12th @ 00:00 EVEtime through June 18th @ 23:59 EVEtime.

We've heard it over and over from the rebels and skeptics: "CODE. only shoots ships that can't shoot back." Tom Bechtolsheim, being a carebear, has probably said or thought it himself. They couldn't be more wrong. Agent Cassandra Dickinson destroyed Tom's heavily armed battleship...

...using nothing but a Skiff. Even mining ships can be deadly. Battleship versus exhumer? The CODE always wins. Always. (Cassandra did the same thing to a 500 million isk Legion.)

Ever Sheppard was autopiloting a fail-fit cruiser through highsec when she was stopped for a routine inspection by Agent Salah ad-Din al-Jawahiri. Salah used antimatter to carefully inspect the ship and remove its contents.

For some reason, the Blackbird contained 79 blueprint copies. As you can tell, zKillboard grossly undervalued the cargo, and was unable to provide an estimate for the 30 faction cruiser BPCs. Salah did some checking and found them to be worth around 2.5 billion isk in total. Then Ever Sheppard returned to her keyboard and invited Salah to a private convo. But that's a story for another day.

Orcas are sometimes used for hauling, but they also continue to pose a threat to highsec's asteroid belts and ice anomalies. MiniLuv and the New Order teamed up once again to take them down.

Ostog Rocks discovered a clever way to lose his 2.1 billion isk Raven Navy Issue while running missions. His provocative actions attracted the attention of Agents Breakfast, Thomas Vanek, Broken Flames, Saronsen Illat, Cody Pollard, cookie cluster, Timoxa Zero, V-ktor Dolus, Reyni Allas-Rui, and C-ta Vilosa, who came together from a wide variety of different alliances and combined firepower from different types of ships. Agent V-ktor Dolus reported the event the united them:

"Among other things, the carebear slowboated his faction battleship between empty cans (pre-looted by our friend), looking for the items required for the mission. Unsurprisingly, he failed to respond to communication requests and had no Mining Permit in his bio."

scully Severasse wasn't fooling anyone with her rookie ship. She was an autopiloter, and that meant she had to be taught a lesson. scully received a surprise visit from Agent ST0NER SMURF, who knows a thing or two about popping autopiloters and their pods.

You know it's a bad week for carebears when a 4.2 billion isk pod wasn't the most expensive one. scully had 4.8 billion isk worth of implants. It's almost as if this pod was some kind of elaborate (and expensive) practical joke: A Harvest set? A Michi's Excavation Augmentor? Get outta here with that. C'mon.

freighters need a "mining permit" too?? as with seemingly all your beliefs you´re wrong. fail-logic, just shove that "permit" where Lawrence lives. if you can find room of course as James´s backside (read: arse) seems to be the storage for tear mails and who knows what else (catalysts, sad arguments, perma banned gankers) too.

Anon 4:24AM: You should look for some of my posts back a couple of years where I was detailing the properties of the ass of James...eerr...Hitler 315. So, members of the CODEdot Order of Nazism, rejoice in the glowing anus of your false prophet, James 315.

However, if they don't feed him corpses, then his ass turns into a black hole and starts sucking everything around into it. You know those permabanned gankers that we don't hear from any more? They are currently residing in his ass in a state of permanent stink.

Players participating in PVP and playing the game as it was made to be played is the Code Winning. So whether we win in the PVP match or lose, we win.Hence, The Code always wins! Always!

P.S., how is that blog coming along? Says something for your audience that you have to come to our blog to whine in the comments and post killmails that aren't even yours. Kind of hard for you to get into some real PVP like those guys when all you can do is shoot at ships that are going to die anyways to CONCORD or Facpo.

Is it not your definition of PVP to take fights with the odds stacked against you, sometimes losing, often winning them?

Do you not agree that the Skiff was fighting against superior fire power all the time? Did you know the Barghest fight also involved a Navy Raven shooting the Skiff as well?And the Legion was supported by a (failing) Armageddon, too.

Now tell me that is not "punching above one's weight class"...

Geez, bears. Next time they will say that PVP is only when you solo an Avatar in a rookie ship.

The KMs of Skiff losses were unrelated to the fights mentioned in the blog. As stated above: Sometimes Cassandra lost against superior odds, and more often Cassandra won even though the cards were stacked against her. Elite PVP, right? Fighting against all odds, and coming out victorious most of the time?
